Please add support for DTS for the Sonos Playbar.

Hello, have a question to the community who own a Playbar. If we supposed that the Playbar supports DTS, does your TV support DTS passthrough over the optical cable? I think the most of us have to buy an additional optical audio switch.
@Jgatie: I disagree again. For me, "pretty good" would imply it was worth spending £££ on a couple of Play:3 devices as surround speakers. "OK" would say it's not worth the £££ investment as you're not going to get much worthwhile from them. If I already had 2 x Play:3 speakers upstairs, I wouldn't even bother bringing them downstairs to get Prologic sound.

I won't be buying one until it does, all my movies I download are DTS.

Please Sonos don't let us wait another 3 month for any further comments on this issue. Admit your mistake or your misunderstanding and correct it asap. I am really frustrated!! If it's not possible to use the optical input from a technical point of view or with regards to licensing, you shall recall all your playbars which have been sold so far. Otherwise you blame your customers.

Yep, Sonos is lucky I didn't check for codec support BEFORE I bought this gadget. Sonos got a lot of things right with the playbar, so I am confident they will get this right... in time. But do keep us updated on the progress!

Please add DTS support asap...this is a must

I'm sad, sad as can be. I invested in the entire Sonos surround solution and can't even enjoy my Bluray collection in the manner in which it was intended to be enjoyed. I'm sad I trusted this company to provide a state of the art, cutting edge product. It won't happen again.

what takes so long to implement DTS? in my mind it's just a simple part of software - yes and licence fee SONOS had to pay. So if it will cost 20 or 30 bugs I will pay for that! but please add DTS!!!!

Just brought playbar and play3,no dts avaible,unable to read 80% of my movies library. Very frustrate!!

...Still waiting. Buying one the second you add DTS! For years I have intentionally ripped all Blurays to MKV, keeping only the DTS-track. And since my Samsung series 8 outputs DTS through SPDIF, converting all 'back' to DD5.1 is a no-go for me! 😞 PLEASE add DTS support! My two cents.

It seems to me that Sonos have made a serious miscalculation with the lack of support for DTS. I have also recently purchased a full SONOS surround system to go with my new series 7 Samsung TV. Instead of being a simple connection as described in the PlayBar promotion I have had to connect my external devices and TV through an external optical switch box to be able to enjoy DD5.1. That was the first compromise. The second is that, (as most people who purchase this system), we are looking for top quality image and sound and will therefore be using BluRay discs as a regular source. The vast majority of these discs are only encoded in DTS and therefore even through an external switch, "the sound will be downgraded" On a positive note... For those of us who own a PS3 Slim I have found that with certain settings, the PS3 will output DD5.1 even from a DTS only Bluray. Step 1. under settings/sound settings/audio output choose Optical Digital Next choose the audio output formats and ensure that Dolby Digital 5.1 is checked in the list and save the settings Step 2. under settings/Video Settings/BD Audio Output Format (Optical Digital) choose Bitstream (Mix) This setting converts all PS3 sounds to DD5.1 The "about my system" status in the SONOS app reports DD5.1 input, even from DTS BluRay with this combination. Whilst this gives a solution for some it still does not excuse the lack of inbuilt DTS support on the Soundbar. I Hope SONOS act soon to rectify this
